The picture which attracted the
greatest amount of attention was Miss
Kate Abbot's ''Elihu Pettigo." This
picture occupied an easel on the north
side of the room and was all the time
surrounded by a crowd of admirers. The
subject is well known in this city as be-
ing the peanut vender par excellence of
Emporia. The painting is a fine one
and very faithful delineation of the
subject. Miss Abbot's game pieces
also attracted much attention. "a
View of Erie, Pa" by Miss Galbreath,
which hung in a good light on the east
wall, attracted considerable attention
it being one of the finest specimens in
the collection. A little half finished
sketch on an easel in the northwest
corner of the room attracted the eyes OF
a good many as being very cute an6
lifelike. 1t was the portrait of a small
child and entitled, very appropriately
| zone More" This gem is from the
brush of Miss Abbot. Grant in Mex
ieo," by V. harrington, was fine anC
speaks well for the skill of the artist

V. harrington, were all fine and d.
serve a more extended mention, whic
our space prevents giving. This, how
ever, must be said, that it is seldom
a western town you see such fine woT
done by young people. Those who sa
the exhibition yesterday are loud
praises of both teacher and pupils. II
exhibition closed at 6 o'clock. A dep
tation of nine ladies came from Cotton
wood Falls, and were very muC
pleased by the art spirit shown by Il
,, Emporia people.
